TACTICS & STRATEGIES

TOM LUONGO—With every victory by the SAA Tiger Forces and Russian air force in Syria that policy has slipped away inch by inch. The stronger Bashar al-Assad’s rule in Syria becomes, the more the country is rebuilt and the American/Israeli/Saudi/British support for Islamic extremists known in western media as ‘moderate rebels’ becomes common knowledge the more pressure mounts on their secondary allies. These were Qatar, Turkey, the UAE, France and Germany.

STEPHEN KARGANOVIC—Without ample supplies of Soros cash to fuel the enthusiasm (and the avarice) of Sharp’s street infantry, international media satanization and isolation of the targeted country’s leadership, financial and economic destabilization and pressure brought about from abroad, as well as patient long-term intelligence recruitment and corruption of key domestic figures and institutions well in advance of the official launching of the “color revolution,” little would have been accomplished just by following Sharp’s supposedly brilliant strategic injunctions.

Today, PETA purchased shares in Facebook, enabling the group to submit a shareholder resolution, attend the company’s annual meetings, and ask questions of executives there. The move comes after the social media platform upped its use of warning screens on PETA videos showing real-life incidents of routine cruelty to animals, significantly limiting the group’s ability to expose animal suffering to a wide audience.

JOHN SPRITZLER— Yes, a revolution to remove the plutocracy from power and create an egalitarian society without oppression will involve some violence, inevitably. But if a revolution is ever going to succeed in the United States it will be because a huge revolutionary movement develops and it gains the support of a critical mass of members of the military, so that when ordered to attack the movement those soldiers refuse and use their weapons to defend the movement from those who would attack it violently. This is what happened in the February, 1917 revolution in Russia that led to the Czar abdicating. A similar thing happened in Iran, which is why the Shah, even though he thought he had the largest military force in the region, had to flee the country. A revolution most certainly does not mean half the population shooting the other half.

The Yellow Vests are revolted by the pouring of hundreds of millions by the national and global plutocracy into the reconstruction of Notre Dame, which they value, of course, but think it should have been much better guarded and maintained, and now repaired with state funds. Meanwhile, Jimmy dons his own Yellow Vest. Yay!
